Sorry to be a shit head about it but who cares what you're ready for? We have strong positions that need to be advocated: free and fair elections at home and the end of American aggression abroad. Who cares about particular personalities as they might be suited for the presidency. That's four years off. If we're still in this quagmire and have no fair voting system, we are up against a lot more than whether you think people are ready for this or that person.

Boxer and Conyers are great Democrats and great Americans for fighting the good fight now and being effective. I'm stunned, quite frankly, that the right wing media machine hasn't eviscerated both of them. It's a testimony to Boxer and Conyers' ability to resonate with the large sections of the public.
